Reasons To
Visit Tanzania

  • Beaches

    It is extremely easy to add some beach relaxation in Zanzibar after a tiring safari on the mainland; the beaches are stunning and diving is excellent. You don't have to travel far either as the island is only a 30 minute flight from Dar Es Salaam. Tanzania is therefore the ideal location to combine a safari and beach break.

  • Big Cats & Safari Wildlife

    Tanzania has some of Africa's most famous and best national parks and reserves where you are guaranteed fantastic big cat sightings. The Serengeti, Selous and the Crater are just some of the best game viewing areas to visit.

  • Birds

    Tanzania has more than 1,000 species of birds and some spectacular places to view them. Lake Natron is also the only known breeding ground for East Africa's millions of lesser flamingos which cover the lake between August and October.

  • Chimpanzees

    The Mahale Mountains - towering almost 2km above the shore of Lake Tanganyika are home to some of the last remaining wild chimpanzees. There are currently around 900 which are habituated to humans, and tracking them is a magical experience.

  • Great Migration

    One of the highlights of the Serengeti National park is the great annual migration which passes through this amazing wilderness. Up to 1.8 million wildebeest and zebra have been counted doing their annual trip in search of the sweet grasses and the rains.

  • Local Culture

    Tanzania has an evocative mix of people and cultures with 120 ethnic groups making up the diverse population. The largest group are the Sukuma but perhaps the most memorable are the Maasai who you will often see in Northern Tanzania herding their cattle, goats and sheep.

Ngorongoro Serena Lodge

Ngorongoro Conservation Area

The Ngorongoro Serena Lodge stands on the lip of the crater with far reaching views.

It is not an attractive hotel but it is comfortable and has excellent staff, good food and comfortable rooms.

The main lodge houses a dining room, living room and bar and lovely sunset terrace where drinks and canapés are served each evening. There is a curio shop, on site masseurs and lots of very friendly staff to ensure your stay is comfortable.

The Serena has 75 rooms stretched out along the crater rim. Each room is spacious and has a sunny veranda with lovely views. There are en suite bathrooms and a few thoughtful touches such as complimentary snacks (always good after a long game drive).

With a good position not far from the access roads to the crater we recommend it for a few nights stay.
